Juventus were stripped of 15 points in Serie A as a result of bookkeeping offences.
During the investigation of the club, a ‘black book’ written by sports coordinator Federico was found Cherubs.
There, Dejan Kulusevski is exemplified as a bad signing.
Dejan Kulusevski was signed by Juventus in January 2020. The 22-year-old is now on loan at Tottenham, a loan that runs until this summer.
During Kulusevski’s time at Juventus, it has emerged that the club cheated with the accounting. On January 20, it was revealed that the Turin club will lose 15 points in the league as a result.
Today, several media outlets, among others, are reporting The Athletic and Sky Sports Italia, that a paper with the heading “Black book FP” was found during the investigation of the club. “FP” is the initials of Juventus’ former club manager Fabio Paratici.
Kulusevski sawed
However, the author of the list is Juventus sports coordinator Federico Cherubini, who wrote it before a meeting with Fabio Paratici, where Cherubini’s being or not being at the club was to be discussed.
In the ‘black book’, Cherubini lists the things he wants to discuss with Paratici during the meeting.
Under the item “how did we end up here?” Cherubini has recorded “meaningless signings”, of which he has named Kulusevski as an example.
Cherubini’s opinion is said to have been that Juventus paid too much for the Swede.
The Italian prosecutor’s office has described the black book as “a disturbing document” which would have a “devastating effect in terms of sporting loyalty”, according to Sky Sports Italia.
